The Alvis 14.75 was made by Alvis from 1927 to 1929 and was the first Alvis with a six-cylinder engine. The straight-six overhead-valve unit was fed by a single Solex carburettor, with a bore and stroke of 63 mm by 100 mm giving 1,870 cc, and the axles hung on semi-elliptical leaf springs. It came with two wheelbases, 2,845 mm for the two-seaters and 3,010 mm for the four-seaters, in saloon, convertible and roadster bodies. After some 492 were sold, the Silver Eagle replaced it in 1930.
